CHAOS and COSMOS

CHAOS and COSMOS The flower exhibition

2013.11.15-17, Gallery “CHAOS”, Kyoto Flower; Cosmos

This show was the installation showing my flower works and original stories about “chaos and cosmos”.

We call the flower “cosmos” as the same sound in English. But we have a Chinese character for it with different meaning from “cosmos”. “Cosmos” , Greek meaning like system of universe would come from the image of the leaf of the flower. “秋桜” ,the Chinese character signing the flower cosmos means itself ” autumn cherry blossom “

I felt it is like coupled mirror. I arranged empty frames as an image of mirror. One was for flower, the other was for leaf. The Japanese word “秋桜” (sounds “cosmos”) might be a sandwich between two different images, cosmos and autumn cherry into the coupled mirror.
